The headline reminds me of a good movie from the 70's called The Sentinel--a woman (nun) becomes the person responsible, sitting in a NYC apartment looking out over the harbor, for watching over the gates of hell. Good cast.

Respect to the team handling this. It’s not just science, it’s coordination at a global level under pressure.
